Many items need to make their way into the family bed, including my old teddy bear, Boris. Or, as Mikko has for some reason renamed him, Morris. (This is one of those pictures where Mikko looks so like Sam in his childhood photos it makes me smile.)

Mikko had his second dental extraction this day and was feeling a tad fragile. I looked over in the afternoon and saw him sleeping sitting up. (He hasn't napped since he was 2.) I scooted him down onto the couch and added a blanket — but not before I took a picture.

On a day soon thereafter, I peered in my rearview mirror when I parked and realized: Both kids were asleep! Will wonders never cease?

Since this was after a morning fraught with crying and even some anxiety-induced vomit, I enjoyed the time to play on my cell phone and let the kids sleep their crankies away. Isn't sleep the best?
